About Me

I am a PhD student at Department of Computer Science in Virginia Tech, working with Huaicheng Li. I work broadly on memory system, with particular interests in memory profiling, performance analysis and system-level performance optimization. Previously, I earned my master degree in Computer Science at University of Rochester, where I worked on data management system for scientific computing, advised by Fatemeh Nargesian. I recieved my bachelor's degree in Energy and Power Engineering at Xi'an Jiaotong University in June 2019. [cv]

Miscellaneous

More, more and more:

My Chinese name is 刘 (Liu) 金澍 (Jinshu). I was born and living in Shenyang before heading off to college. Then I spent several years in Xi'an. Rochester, NY, is a small city, but I still had the chance to meet some interesting people 🙂. Now, I have been in Blacksburg for several years, a quiet and peaceful place, perfect for research 🙂.
